Lightly sanded to scuff up the finish, then thoroughly cleaned the bevel and then wiped with alcohol, then sprayed the Duplicolor Adhesion Promoter. Did two coats of the Adhesion Promoter and a bunch of coats of the white.

Finally done the bezel in Rustolium plastic textured black. It matches the stock black texture on the factory bumper pretty good IMO.
As per the instructions I just cleaned the bezel with paint thinner & sprayed on the paint. I used about 1 can & it took about an hour to dry well.
One of the more satisfying mods that I have done. Cheap, looks good & I didn't have to pay anyone to do it.
